  • This was awesome! The only issue I had was the Vudu link wasn’t for the latest APK. I scrolled down to the latest. Had to click Download a couple times but the Vudu installed and works flawlessly. I can even watch HDX streams on a 2nd Gen Stick!

  • Followed the directions and got the app installed but once I tried to open Vudu, it keeps saying that the password does not meet requirements even though I can open vudu just fine on my computer. Help

    • I turned off the TV, removed the firestick, unplugged the power and waited 10 secs. Then connected power, inserted back into HDMI slot and turned on the Tv again. This time it worked.

  • Should I go back in and turn off Apps from Unknown Source and ADB Debugging after downloading the app? This worked great by the way. Thank you

  • getting an error that says it "Encountered an error during playback. Please try again". This happens on every movie I try to watch.

    • It doesn’t play 4K uhd. That’s why you got that error. Try to play hdx movie and it will work. Only from hdx to sd. So if you want to watch movie on Firestick with vudu you can rent or purchase hdx.

  • Can you explain why the VPN portion is necessary? You mention not getting "caught" Can you just let me know the importance of that step. I just bought the new 4K Firestick and was very disappointed it did not have VUDU access. Thank you.

    • If you watch the kid I app and don't pay for movies and tv you would normally pay for then yes get a VPN so the people who "police" this sort of piracy won't catch your up address. To my knowledge if you are using for vudu with an account you already have it's not necessary but still a just in case sort of thing. Identity theft happens even on firestick

      • Followed all steps and it works great except one problem... I cannot watch ANY UHD 4K movies that I purchased. I can watch my HDX movies but idk what’s going on.
        Can anyone help me out?

  • This is not working for me. I downloaded the downloader and put that web address in, but there's nothing that says "download latest APKs" nor "VUDU for fire tv" There are a lot of them that say "VUDU Movies & TV (Android TV) and a bunch of other ones that have nothing to do with VUDU. Did something change?

  • I loaded the app just fine and logged into my account with no issue. But I have no options to rent or buy movies. All I can do is watch what I already have in my library. Any idea how to fix this?
